Arrived in St Martin
Hello everyone,Just Us left Virgin Gorda a few days ago and did the Anagada Passage. We left at 3:00 pm in 6 to 7 foot seas. The winds were 20-25 on the nose. The trip was a 9,of 10 being the worst I've seen.The sun went down about 6:00pm and the seas increased and shortened to make the passage very unpleasent.Lisa and Jonny stayed below while Richie and I manned the helm all nite.With no moon till 5:00am it was crazy out there.A seventeen hour run and finally were here.Once inside the bay on the dock we cleared customs and put our selves back together.Welcome to St Martin

Hi everyone! We were in Virgin Gorda with lori and John. We stayed in the Bitter End. It's a beautiful resort with lots to do. We swam in the pool and went to dinner at the Bitter End yacht club. Today we rented a car and went to the famous Baths. They are one of the 7 wonders of the world. Amazing. Then we went to lunch in Spanish Town and then to customs to check out because this is it! We are on our way to St. Martin!!! Richie and I have the first watch and Jonny and Jon Have the second watch. It will take us about 15 hrs. We will be in touch Soon. Love Just Us

Hi everyone! We were in little Yost Van Dyke for a night. We met up with Lori and John and went to the bubbly pool. It is a famous little place that you have to hike through the woods to get to. The waves would come over the rocks into the "pool" and feel so cool. Like a pelegrino rinse.We then left there the next morning to go to Norman Island. This is another beautiful harbor. It hosts the famous "Willie T". A wild and crazy bar/restaurant. We left that one to the wild and crazy people. The snorkeling at the Indians was amazing!!! Today we are heading over to Road Town Tortolla. We need to re-provision our boat. We are getting closer to our passage to St. Martin hopefully by mid week next week. We will be in touch soon. Just Us

It is a very exclusive resort catering to mostly the rich and famous. So we are leaving today.[lol].The beach was beautiful and the restaurant on the beach was fantastic. We met some very nice people from Granby,believe it or not.Jon and I walked 4 mi. uphill this morning. We are ready for bed!!!! We are now heading back to Sophers hole to meet up with some friends we met in St. Thomas. They are a blast and we can't wait to see them. From there we are heading to Yost Van Dyke.

Hi everyone! We left Leverik Bay in Virgin Gorda a few days ago. We just got wifi today! We sailed to Anegada and stayed for two days. It was absolutely beautiful. A very flat island . The highest point is 26 feet . A cell tower. Cow wreck beach was something out of a movie. I have never seen anything so beautiful!! Miles of beach with no one on it. We snorkled and swam all day. The island is surrounded by reefs. A little tricky to get in and out of. We are now in a little bit of paradise called Marina Cay. It is off of scrub island near the eastern side of Tortolla. We will stay here a few days and then we are heading for Peter Island. Hopefully we will find wifi along the way. Talk to you soon. We will be posting some pictures for you to enjoy. Bye for now.

Hi everyone!!! Yesterday we departed from St. Thomas to visit St. John for the night at Francis Bay. We snorkeled, swam, and took a long walk. Along the way we saw 3 sea turtles, huge starfish, conch, a blow fish, stingrays and many more. On our walk we spotted a huge crab at the base of a tree bigger than Jonnys head!!! Today we left at around 11 o'clock and sailed a quick run to Sopers hole in Tortolla BVI to clear customs. That was a long process. On our way to shore Jonny spotted 2 beautiful dolphins cruising the mooring field. It was amazing!! We decided to stay the night, It is really beautiful here we love it. Till next time,
Love Just us,
